Watching cartoon characters juggle can be incredibly frustrating. Mickey Mouse doing an 8-ball shower? Give me a break! Why is so hard to animate a cascade pattern? Why have there been so few honest representations of juggling within the medium of cartoon animation? We dug into the archives to find our favorite cartoon juggling clips.
For those too young (or too old) to remember, Space Ghost Coast to Coast was a 1990’s late-night talk show hosted by Space Ghost, a 1960s Hannah-Barbera cartoon character. Confused? That’s ok, just watch the clip below.
In the following clip, Futurama’s Hermes shows us that it take a lot of juggling skills to maintain a bloated bureaucracy. In this video, our favorite Jamaican bureaucrat demonstrates a cascade, some spinning techniques as well as some old-school cigar box maneuvers. Well done!
